We
brought our creativity together in the hopes that we would inspire you to
join us (DT members) in doing a good deed!

Most
of you know our Boys and Gals from the armed forces are deployed all over the
world. Sometimes these men and woman are in places that make it very hard, or they’re
far away from anywhere that they can pick up a sweet card to send a quick note
home. Luckily, they have OPERATION WRITE HOME (OWH). OWH is a non-profit organization that sends special boxes
filled with cards to soldiers all over the world. How can you help OWH keep the
good deed going? Making cards!!! Yes! OWH angels receive tons of handmade cards
from crafters all over the world, then they check and organize cards to be sent
out to our soldiers. Take a look at some of their own words about OWH packs:

Now
we would love for you to join us to help OWH. We thought it would be amazing
fun to do a blog hop to inspire you! Design Teams from PaperTemptress, Oozak and Color me Creative
Class will join together in one amazing Card Drive HOP. The fun just gets better!
You can join in by making a project (following
OWH – size and safety guidelines), entering a picture of the project
on the hop inlinkz (One project linked per person please) then mailing the
project to us. We would loooove it if you could send as many as you can by November
7th
(we will screen them and send all of them to OWH) . You could win super prizes
from amazing, super generous sponsors!!! YES!! You do a good deed and you also
can win a sweet gift!!!

Here is my card for the hop. First let's start off with the image. The cute little clown came from A Day For Daisies. I just loved this image because I could see a mom or a dad sending this card home to their little girl or boy.

It’s time to HOP around. Leave little note as
you pass by these lovely designers’ blogs! Don’t forget to add you project to
the inlinkz at the end of the Hop! You will also find the address to mail your
cards at the end of the hop. You can Hop throughout the month of October. This
way everyone in their own time can hop and join in!

Hi all, this is another card to add for Operation Write Home. The cardstock was given to the design team at Paper Temptress. The base for this card is Safari Brown Skinny Columns. The image is stamped on Cryogen and colored with copic markers. The swirly background paper is Hamby Screen Print. You can get this in a 6x6 package . The link to the package that contains this Screen Printer is here. The pretty orange accent is Butternut Treasures.
